Ministry underlines 'vast space' for Taiwan to reunify peacefully

China will create a vast space for peaceful reunification, but will never leave any space for "Taiwan independence" separatist moves, a Foreign Ministry spokeswoman said.

The Taiwan question concerns China's sovereignty and territorial integrity, and Taiwan is an inseparable part of China's territory, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said at a daily news conference on Monday, commenting on remarks made by Taiwan leader Tsai Ing-wen.

Tsai said in a speech on Monday that there is "no room for compromise" over the island's "sovereignty" and "democratic way of life", according to AFP.
